None in Thursday's sainsbury's delivery. None in the local sainsburys. Or the local Tescos, or Tescos in the next town.
Ended up buying a tiny pack from the chemist at £££
what's going on?

Funny we had a shortage of size 4 pull ups here. Well either that or DH could not find them in the shop. He came home with the sticky sided ones. I don't understand why anyone uses them on a child that can standHmm....

There's a size 2 shortage around here can't buy them for love nor money, in fact it was my laziness to drive miles for nappies the final push I needed to try reusables Smile

My dh bought some size 4 the other day... Dd2 is 4 weeks old...

RVF400 · 12/03/2012 12:39

Next time I see them I'm going to buy 3 packs.
I've been a bit hesitant about buying more than I need for the next few weeks ever since I had to give away about 50 size 2 nappies we couldn't use.
Babies grow alarmingly fast, don't they!

They're all in my DD's room I'm afraid, waiting to be put on her prolifiic pooh producing bottom that never seems to stop

Soz.

RVF400 · 12/03/2012 12:42

Grin iona
well at least she'll grow into them!
For a while we had size 3s and size 4s, I tried to explain to DH that DD needed the size 4s at night to stay dry but we could use up the size 3s in the day. It's not that complicated, is it? I think he just filters me out sometimes.

Same here, not a 4 to be had. And you won't find ANY size 5s as they're all in our garage after DH decided that we would never run out. Ever. Again.

Booty, are you saying that babies and toddlers should be in pull-ups as soon as they can stand?

ZonkedOut · 12/03/2012 14:07

That should read Sooty, sorry.

WandaDoff · 12/03/2012 14:09

Would that not make pooey nappies a whole lot worse to change?

BlueAndRedMakePurple · 12/03/2012 14:09

sooty maybe because you have to strip child off to put one of them nappies. With sticky sided ones you only have pull trouser down to their ankles. Hmm

blackoutthesun · 12/03/2012 14:10

oh i agree with pull up on a baby who can stand a lot easier

LoveHandles88 · 12/03/2012 14:12

Because they are cheaper Sooty. And, like Blue says, easier to use!

Ringo81 · 12/03/2012 14:22

They are in my sons nursery!! Sorry ladies , they were on offer in morrisons so I bought hundreds of them, just worried that he may grow out of them before I can use them all!!!!
